First of all, I saw a long piece of woods, roughly 2 metres



What I need for the wood saw: piece of wood, saw blade, my SAK, some paracord


Cutting a piece of woods long like the blade saw


Then, cutting two pieces of woods long like half the first piece


This is the frame of the wooden saw


Working the two extremities of the horizontal piece of woods…



… and working the vertical pieces of woods to place the horizontal piece



Preparing the vertical pieces of woods to place the saw blade




Making two small pieces to block in tension the saw blade



Now, I make the places where the saw blade will be blocked



Preparing the places where the paracord will be placed


The final frame it’s done


Tensioning the blade whit a lean piece of wood wrapped around the paracord


Working the wood saw, not bad at all, as usual the SAK it's just a winner, you may realize whit him just all you have in mind




Ciao, Alfredo
 
Wow very impressive! What SAK is that and did the pocket clip come with it?

I always wanted to try this, yours looks pretty darn good! I have an outrider as well, love those bigger 111mm saks.
 
A show of true woodsmanship and ingenuity!! I very much enjoyed your pictures, and thank you very much for sharing!! That was very impressive. I may have to try that out.
 
That is a nice outline for building a saw. I am going to have to show that to the youth in my Scout Troop.
